Bill, Im about to send him some linen micarata that came out of my Dads old knife handle stock. Billy has told me his personal favorite mouth piece is the micarta. Ill send you a PM when I send it so you can ask him for one. Thanx Del and you can bet I'll give him a call. Micarta is my favorite handle on all my knives. It has great grip and a good feel to it and I'm sure it would make a nice mp.

Do you want some micarta?

My Dad doesnt make knives any more, so I was after him to bring some of his wood. He has some great stuff. He brought three pieces of the micarta. 3 to 4 foot long by  6 inches by maybe 1/2 thick. I can cut you a few pieces if you want.

I also scored on some old Mexican and south American rosewood. I think one piece is desert iron wood. Dad had ripped em down for knife handles already, probably only be good for Trumpet mouth pieces, scratch box sides, or striker tips.

That is a sharp looking call from Mr BB..
